Description
The Specialinsert M1 T38 Bonding Stud provides a 1/4-20 male threaded post on a 38 x 15 mm rectangular baseplate. The zinc-plated steel fastener can be adhesively bonded to a suitable substrate or incorporated during a molding process, creating a mechanical attachment point without drilling through the finished face. This version uses a 1 in stud length for assemblies that need an external threaded post above the bonded base.
Where the Specialinsert M1 T38 Bonding Stud Fits
The T38 footprint spreads the attachment area across a narrow rectangular plate, which can suit panels, enclosures, composite parts, signs, transportation components, and fabricated assemblies with limited room in one direction. It gives designers a fixed threaded point for mounting covers, brackets, equipment, trim, or secondary structures. The correct adhesive and surface preparation must be selected for the actual substrate, loading direction, environmental exposure, and production method.
Installing the Specialinsert M1 T38 Bonding Stud
For an adhesive installation, clean and prepare both the baseplate and substrate according to the chosen adhesive system. Apply enough material to wet the bonding area without interfering with the stud threads, seat the fastener in the planned location, and fixture it against movement through cure. For molded-in placement, establish location and orientation in the tool so the post remains accessible after demolding. Confirm pull, shear, peel, torque, and edge-distance requirements with a representative assembly test rather than relying on the fastener geometry alone.
